Customizing SMF > Mod Requests
Moving posts between topics
SpectroPro:
I requested this exact thing a while back (month or two.)
This is a stock feature of most other boards and is an essential part of any good moderators arsenal.. While I love the split topic feature, and it is quite powerful, it doesn't address this very simple and NEEDED feature.
The ability to select one or multiple posts and then move them into another topic is missed soooo much if you come to SMF from other boards...
The check boxes on topics is just how it should be done for posts as well.. This way, you check the box of the post(s) you want to deal with. At the bottom of the page, would be a selection tool, just like on topics... You tell it what you want to do with the selected posts, and if it's move, then you drop down a list of boards and topics to choose from. Should also include delete, moderate, etc... anything you can imagine to do with a post should be a choice.
oddly, the check boxes are already included in posts, but they do nothing that I can find.

i'll bump this topic. I would be an important mod... but what do I say mod? It has to be part of SMF feature list....

To the top for a good mod!!!

I can see the split topics option, and the merge topic option, and can use this to move posts, but it's a very long winded way to do it. If someone posts by mistake to the wrong thread, there doesn't seem any easy way to simply move it to the correct thread.
Any chance someone could make a mod for this please? A "Move post" function To move individual posts to another thread. I find it hard to believe that SMF doesn't have this basic feature.
Permissions = for Admin, and Global moderators.
Feature Set = (not essential for me) But maybe a select multiple posts from a thread, and move. Like the merge topics feature.
More details as discussed here,

There is a mod which can be used.
If a person finds they are typing in the wrong section then a dropdown can be used to post the topic into the correct area.
Is this what you mean?
